Clackmannan Tower is a 14th-century keep of golden stone standing fully five storeys high, built by King David II and later owned by Robert the Bruce. King David constructed the Tower in the mid-14th century, possibly on the site of an earlier royal hunting lodge, on a prominent rise overlooking the Forth valley. He later sold the tower to his cousin Bruce in 1359.

Kinneil House is an attractive mansion based around a late medieval tower house. The oldest part of Kinneil House is a 15th-century tower house. The medieval structure was rebuilt by the Earl of Arran in 1546-50 and finally adapted to form an opulent mansion house for the Dukes of Hamilton around 1660. It is now owned by Historic Scotland with the aid of the Friends of Kinneil organisation.
